Stanage Edge from Sheffield — Peak District National Park

Mountain biking

From the centre of Sheffield, also known as 'the Outdoor City', straight out into the Peak District National Park, this Tour is a great one for gravel riders that like to push the limits of drop bars off-road!

Heading from the city up onto the well-known Stanage Edge, you'll face some stone slab causeways to test your bike skills, although there's usually a gravel road alongside if you'd rather stick to that. If it ever gets too tricky, remember you can always hop off and walk!

Although not excessively long at 18.6 miles (30 km), this is a great testing route for a short blast or after-work ride in the summertime. Why not take a picnic with you to enjoy from the Tour's furthest point, Goliath's Groove.

From the station in the heart of Sheffield, you'll climb on the roads out to the north-west where you pick up Coppice Road, a gravel byway towards the Redmires Reservoirs.

After a short stint on the quiet road, you have the choice of stone slabs or gravel road as you make your way to Stanage Edge.

On the way back, you'll descend the brilliant forest roads of Wyming Brook Drive before returning to the city.

Coppice Road Byway (Rivelin Valley to Crosspool)

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Wide, unsurfaced byway that climbs (or descends) from Crosspool into the Rivelin Valley. Some really fantastic views over the city of Sheffield from here to take in!

Hagg Hill Gravel Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Extremely steep going towards Redmires, couldn't cycle up it but makes for a good test! It certainly does make for an enjoyable downhill section though.

Long Causeway at Redmires Upper Reservoir

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Smashing road around Redmires Reservoir. This lovely section of quiet road leads onto some single track over Stanage Edge.

Stanage Stone Slabs

Highlight • Cycleway

A brilliant test on a gravel bike or fairly straight forward on a mountain bike, you can choose this series of stone slabs to either climb or descend next to this gravel road on Stanage.

Look out for the lips and dips and have fun!

Stanage Edge

Highlight • Viewpoint

Take the Plantation descent if you're feeling brave! Or carry on along the ridge line for the causeway descent and dodge the Duke of Edinburgh groups.

Wyming Brook Drive

Highlight • Trail

Lovely gentle climb from Rivelin Valley up to Redmires. The wide, easy-going track meanders through the forest up the valley.
